Tortured
After listening to Bai Wensheng's account, Bai Wenli finally sighed, "Old Fourth, you've acted impulsively this time, involving the Li family in this matter. What if your second brother doesn't want a divorce? How will he be able to face the Li family in the future? Moreover, those brothers of the Li family are not good people, and it'll be difficult for us to interact with them again..."
He just wants to settle the matter within the family and doesn't want it to be known by everyone, wearing a green hat is not a good thing to hear, in short, he thinks that it will damage their second brother's dignity as a man, so try to solve it quietly.
But after all, Fourth Brother is still young and didn't think of this point.
"Never mind, things are already like this. Wait for your second brother to come back, I've already informed him. Sigh, don't tell Dad about this for now, it's better to let him know two days later than to tell him now and make him anxious."
"Big brother, father should know about this matter, why hide it? Every day, I have to cook for this cheap thing, I feel sorry for our father."
Bai Wenguang patted his younger brother's shoulder, "You, don't forget, we only have one father left. If something happens to him, what will we do? And think about Haochen, he's also a motherless child. Let's wait for your second brother to come back before discussing this matter."
Bai Wenli instructed the fourth brother to go home and take good care of himself, but he felt a bit depressed in his heart. He wasn't the second elder, so there was no way for him to know what was on his mind.
But things have come to this point, what to do he still wants to wait for his second brother to make this decision.
Although brothers are of the same flesh and blood, after all, the second brother has already started a family and career, and is at least the master of his own household. There are some things that even if he were the older brother, he couldn't make decisions for this younger brother.
Geng Mei led her daughter out and saw her husband sitting alone outside smoking.
"Lao Bai, what's going on? I just heard Xiao Si calling you, where is he?"
Bai Wengu smiled wryly. "I let Lao Si go back, alas, I'll tell you, Lao Si and Lao San caught Li Qian and that man in the act, and now even several of Li's brothers are involved... this matter is a bit tricky..."
Yu Xuan's heart skipped a beat, it's over, it seems that even if Second Uncle doesn't want to face it, he'll have to face it after all. But to be honest, as a woman, she really envies Li Qian, Bai Wenyi has given almost everything he can give to this woman, what a pity...
Geng Mei took off her sleeves and patted the dust off her body. "Hey, what's going on here? Didn't you guys already have a plan in mind? It was only a matter of time. This woman is too capable. I said it before, how can you walk along the shore without getting your shoes wet?"
"Now that things have happened, you think of a way to solve it. What's the point of worrying? Whether you stick your head out or hide it, you'll still get hurt. Hurry up and help me put the apples we picked into the warehouse, I still need to go back and cook."
Geng Meicai didn't care whether Li Qian stole people or not, she thought that kind of woman would eventually cause trouble if kept at home. It's not necessarily a bad thing to get rid of her early, it's just a pity for the child.
"Mom, is today the weekend? Is brother coming back today?"
Geng Mei smiled as she looked at her daughter's bright and shiny eyes, "Really? Do you miss your brother?"
Yu Ting nodded, usually it was Bai Haoran who accompanied her. Although she didn't like to play much, at least at home she had a companion, now there's only her left at home following her parents up and down the mountain.
"Girl, don't worry, your brother and the others will be back this afternoon. You wait by the road, the village will send a car to pick them up this afternoon. Later, mom will go buy some meat for you, and tonight mom will make dumplings for you to eat."
The son is coming back, and Geng Mei, as a mother, still prioritizes her own child.
A group of children who have just been liberated, on the way home in the car, start discussing what to eat. Each one says all they can think of, but the more they talk, the hungrier they get, and the hungrier they get, the more they want to drool. The little friends who are away from home for the first time are eager to return, and they wish that the uncle driving would step on the gas.
Yu Xi had just finished eating and was waiting outside, she wanted to see Bai Haoran's house at first glance.
However, it's not just her waiting by the road, there are many other women also waiting for their children to come back home.
Bai Haoran caught sight of Yu Tong who was waiting by the roadside as soon as he got off the car. "Little sister, I'm back."
When the bus came to a complete stop, parents rushed forward to help, carrying down the students one by one.
Yu Tai saw that Bai Haoran was indeed obedient, holding a large package in his hand, probably all the dirty clothes he had changed into over the past two days.
Bai Haoran excitedly pulled her hand and ran home, the kind of excitement that even Rain Xiang grew up remembering vividly, was simply because he was too young at that age.
"Mom, I'm back..."
Bai Haoran ran to the door and shouted loudly, Geng Mei was busy in the kitchen, but she quickly wiped her hands clean on her apron and rushed out to hug her little treasure.
"Son, miss Mom?"
Bai Haoran smiled and nodded, "Mmm, mom, what delicious dish have you made?"
The little guy's nose was also sharp and he clearly smelled the fragrance coming from the kitchen.
Geng Mei led the two children into the house, "Mom is wrapping dumplings for you, and our family also got a lot of fish from casting nets in the river. Mom is cooking fried fish for you on the stove, it'll be ready soon. You and your sister play inside for a while."
Geng Mei and her mother lived a peaceful life at home, but the situation with Bai Wenli and Bai Wenyi was like ice and fire, two extremes.
Three brothers went together to pick up Bai Wenyi, which made him start inexplicably trembling in his heart as he was originally hurrying back home to see his wife and children.
"What's wrong, big brother?"
Three people came together to pick him up, and Bai Wenyi didn't think it was a trivial matter. His brother's house is now busy, and it's impossible for them to be so free to come and pick him up. Moreover, the other two younger brothers had never come together to pick him up before, so he had already determined that something big had happened at home, but he just didn't know what exactly had happened.
Bai Wenli silently took over the travel bag from his hand.
Patting his shoulder, "Old Second, brother has something to say to you, but you must prepare your heart, this matter concerns you..."
With the supplement of two younger brothers outside Bai Wengu's narrative, Bai Wenyi can be said to have known what big thing happened at home. While listening, his palms clenched into fists, and his fingernails had already pierced the flesh without feeling pain.
Li Qian's matter has been told, but Bai Wenyi didn't say a word, lowering his head and remaining silent. Bai Wenli also didn't know what was on his younger brother's mind, so he could only quietly accompany him back.
Bai Wenyi is a gentle and elegant man, but at the same time, he is also a man with his own dignity and bottom line. When he heard about his wife's infidelity, his heart was almost torn apart in pain, yet he had to endure this humiliation silently.
Bai Wenguang saw him like this, and his heart ached in ways he couldn't express. Bai Wenzhi and Bai Wenxin saw their second brother like this, and at this moment, they didn't know what to say either.
When Bai Wenyi was about to arrive home, his footsteps slowed down. His heart was filled with all sorts of knots. The closer he got to home, the more he hoped the road would be longer, hoping to spend a lifetime walking back.
Bai Wenshen looked at him and gave him a push from behind. "Second Brother, hurry up and go settle this matter, you'll have to face it sooner or later."
Bai Wenyi knew it was like this all along, but even if he didn't want to go home, the road would eventually come to an end.
Bai Wenyi first went back home to take a look, no matter what he had to go see that woman who he had treated with all his heart but was betrayed by her.
Li Qian sat honestly on the kang, these two days Bai Wensheng brothers can be seen at home very seriously, afraid of any mistakes that cannot be explained to Er Ge, also afraid that she will secretly meet with that man again.
Bai Wenyi pushed open the door and saw his wife sitting there stupidly, her face already swollen very high. The anger in his heart suddenly rose up, and he raised his hand to slap this woman who didn't know what was good for her.
Li Qian was startled awake by the sound of the door being pushed open and looked up at him with some trepidation.
Bai Wenyi originally wanted to beat her up, but at this time he couldn't bring himself to do it. After all, this woman was also the one he had pampered for three years, and even though he was dissatisfied before, he had never laid a hand on her.
"You can't even guard it, what bed you dare to get on, Li Qian, I really underestimated you. Today I won't hit you, but I advise you to think carefully, have I been bad to you? Do you still have a conscience? The child is so small, have you thought about how to deal with the situation when the child finds out in the future? How will your parents face the world..."
Bai Wenyi didn't have a sharp tongue, but he was loudly condemning the woman who had abandoned their marriage.
Li Qian's eyes were cold as she looked at Bai Wenyi, her obvious disdain piercing through to Bai Lao Er's heart.
He didn't want to look anymore, turned his head and rushed out of the house.
Bai Wenyi followed closely behind him, not letting his guard down until they reached a deserted area. Only then did Bai Wenyi stop in his tracks and let out a loud vent of the pent-up frustration in his heart, into the open wilderness.
After shouting at his brother for a while, he fell silent and only saw his shoulders shrug up and down.
He let out a sigh and walked behind, putting his arm around his younger brother's shoulders. "Second brother, if you want to cry, then just cry it out. But after crying, you still have to face this matter. I don't have any opinions, as long as it's your decision, I'll respect you."
Bai Wenyi was sobbing quietly in his elder brother's arms, while Bai Wenli could only gently pat his younger brother's back.
"Old two, brother can understand your feelings, no one wants this to happen to themselves, but now it's like this, we have to face it strongly. Brother hasn't read as many books as you, but I have more experience in living a daily life at home."
This matter can be big or small, it's not just a woman casually taking off her pants, if you can step over the threshold in your heart, then continue to live a good life with Li Qian, her little tail is in your hands, I suppose she won't dare to act arbitrarily in the future.
"If you think this hurdle is insurmountable, then go ahead and resolve it. The men of the Bai family are not cowards."
